Apex Legends: 10 Pro Tips For Playing Season 3's New Legend, Crypto

Chapter 14 is not simply another release in the game, it is Behavior Interactive continuing to build their own unique world where the Entity must be appeased. Mathieu Côté described the future for the game as continuing in this way, "the recipe of four chapters a year is now going to become more intensely packed, because in between each chapter we’re going to start releasing Archives. A lot of lore and exploring the backgrounds of characters and what this world

Since this game mode takes place in a nighttime version of Kings Canyon, lighter cosmetics can give away a player’s position. While this won’t matter to Shadow Legends, it does matter to other Legends who can easily spot this contrast at a distance. Shadow Legends see all players in bright red, similar to the way Bloodhound sees enemies when using their Ultimate Abil

Each Shadow Legend kill returns health. This is helpful to know in cases where meds may be unavailable or will take too long to use. Killing Shadow Legends in succession will restore full health, but players will still need to make sure to have enough shields to protect themselves in the case of a Shadow melee att

Being able to recover squadmates remotely using the drone is big news already. Particularly slick drone pilots will be able to sneak the banners of their fallen friends right out from under hostile squads, but the biggest bonus by far is the ability to easily recover teammates that fall outside of the r

Fundamentally, the game looks to be identical on mobile devices. Despite being on a phone instead of a high end PC, "on mobile, this works very well. We had to make a few small changes, for instance, we added a rear-view button on mobile, because you cannot look behind you as easily as with a mouse and keyboard or controll

You can pester enemy snipers into giving up their perch, distract enemy squads and cause them to waste ammunition while your allies prepare an ambush, Nightreign customization or cause them to cut their loot runs short on the assumption that their position's given away. It's particularly fun to open doors in order to feint a push and draw attention to the wrong entra

When there are only 10 Legends remaining, these surviving players join forces to travel to a rescue ship that will take them out of the zombie-infested arena. If any single player makes it to the rescue ship, then the Legends win. However, if the Shadow Legends manage to take them all down, the team of undead players w

This means that if someone wants all the items, they’ll need to pay about $154. If a player only wants one specific skin, the only way to acquire it is to purchase one pack at a time and hope for the b

In this mode, players are unable to ping items and call out enemies. However, those who make it into the top 10 instantly go from enemies to allies. They can revive downed teammates and cover for one another as their squadmates heal. All these tactics are helpful to win the game as more surviving Legends means there's a higher chance players will make it to the rescue ship. Additionally, surviving Legends can use their abilities in tandem. For example, a player might want to throw Caustic’s gas traps next to one of Pathfinder’s ziplines to make it difficult for Shadow Legends to jump on the li

Shotguns, sniper rifles and pistols like the Wingman are great for taking out zombies in one shot. But near the end of the game, players may find themselves having to take on two, three or even more Shadow Legends at once. Because these undead Legends have very low health, a spray-and-pray weapon such as an SMG can be effective for spamming bullets and taking down several enemies in a short amount of t

The mobile platform is it’s own monster to deal with, "the controls were the first thing we tackled, obviously, because its how you enjoy the game," Côté describes, "The team really nailed it, it’s simple, it works. We had a bit of an edge because the game was always designed to be a two-button game. Ideally it was played on a controller, and the early prototypes were two shoulder buttons and the thumb sticks, and that was

He concluded by stating that there is some room to experiment, but only because of the hard work put into creating what the game is today, "I think we could potentially push the boundaries of what can fit in DBD , to a certain extent, we’ve created something that is powerful enough to withstand a bit of stretchi

The same goes for supply bins and open or closed doors, pointing out areas enemies have ransacked as well as untouched loot areas. As mentioned, you can't ping individual pieces of loot, for some reason, but you can still communicate a lot of vital informat

Perhaps even more than playing Dead by Daylight , its player base loves speculating about who the next survivors and killers will be to join in on the terrorizing fun that is sacrificing to, or escaping, the Entity. We recently had the opportunity to speak with Mathieu Côté, the game director for the game at Behavior Interactive, and he had some fascinating insight on how these characters are chosen, as well as why Scooby Doo and the Mystery Incorporated gang will likely never appear in the g
